If you are looking for a walk with a difference, I’d recommend Troll Wood in Leitrim, also known as Cartron Wood. It’s great fun for all ages, and it’s only around 1.2km, so it’s not a long walk.
I love anything a little bit different, and this wood is just that, and great for the imagination of the young, and the young at heart.
Troll Wood is a beautiful forest walk just past Parkes Castle. I did wonder if I was in the right place for a while until I came to the wooden bridge and the signs warning of a troll!
I didn’t see a troll this time but maybe I will when I go back again. It’s well worth a visit just be aware the walk is quite steep in places and don’t do what I did and try to follow the river stick to the pathway instead. It was quite fun sliding down the hill though 🙂
Visit the Leitrim Tourism Network for directions.
GRAND!!! Lovely to hear your voice and to see these gorgeous photos! Glad you made it back from Troll Forest!! 😀
Thanks Merilynn. I’m sure if there was a troll he’d have laughed at me sliding down the hill!
Great vlog Val, and I can hear you perfectly over the river. Very professional filming. Thank you for sharing your journeys with us.
Thanks James 🙂
Your pics are fab, I love woodland walks and my kids would get great craic out of this place 🙂
Thanks Sara 🙂
